BunkerFest is a weekend of activities and live music with bands and DJs. The festival is about converting a site once used for military purposes into an open space for free expression. In its fourth year, BunkerFest will have a new location in Tirana, by Dajti Mountain, at the field in front of the "Ish Kampi i Punetorve". Again this year there will be a campsite available, so bring your tents. The festival is free and open to all.

Bunkerfest is about showcasing good musical talent (rock music, folk music, and DJs), engaging people from a range of backgrounds and inspiring creativity and social cohesion. As a team of volunteers we have enjoyed bringing together people from around the Balkans to Bunkerfest, where not only have we captured their musical attention but sparked people toward thinking about our past and the value in protecting and nurturing our environment for a more creative and socially rich future.

Picture a field in the lush Albania countryside, trees, green grass, bunkers covered with wild vegetation and a place where anyone in the World can gather to listen to underground Rock music, folk music, and DJs from around East Europe. BunkerFest’s motto is “spread the love”. We love our concrete mushrooms and this festival is dedicated to them.

This is our third year running BunkerFest and we know this year is going up another level. We’re located in a field near a village in Tirana (see how to arrive for directions), and for the first time we have an official space for camping (see camping zone) and activities during the day (see activities).
